Our democracy is not the buildings, not the monuments. It's your being willing to work to make things better and being willing to listen to each other and argue with each other and come together and knock on doors and make phone calls and treat people with respect.

- Barack Obama, in his farewell to members of his staff, January 20, 2017

***

On January 21, 2017, we awoke to find an American game show host, Donald J. Trump, inaugurated as the President of the United States. He'd made a campaign promise to "drain the swamp" of Washington elites, but instead he began to fill his cabinet with Republican corporate billionaires.

Every freedom we hold dear—from decent health care, to public schools, to the clean air we breathe and water we drink—is now under attack.

As Democrats we are fighting back. We already outnumber our opponents. But to win we must be active. We must make our voices heard, volunteer, and vote. Join us and we will prevail!

State and U.S. House members run for office every two years; Senators run for election every six years. Basically, this means that our Members of Congress are always either running for office or getting ready for their next election—a fact that shapes everything they do. What they hear from you and me in between elections matters.
